There is a peace the comes from understanding,
And a love that is always remembered.
~ Me, September 14, 2013
Welcome to Peace, Love & Grief. What is this all about? Two years ago I found myself on a journey that I did NOT want or ask for. Where was I going? I did not know. All I knew was it felt like a nightmare with no end, and I felt completely alone. “What kind of journey,” you ask? It was and still is my journey through grief.
Yes, there were people around me who care and love me but from where I stood, no one seemed to be able to understand. I felt lost and abandoned and so utterly alone. It has been a slow journey and since I am not of the opinion that this journey will end in this life, I know I still have a long way to go. I have made a lot of mistakes. However, I have had a lot of help and have learned a lot in these two years. That said, my wish is not to tell anyone what to do or not do, how to feel or not feel or any of those things that usually frustrate me when someone says them to me. : )
My wish is to share my journey as it was and is – to be open and honest. If by doing so, I can help even one person as they travel along their own journey, then it is good and I am at peace…
